Once again, people are falling into the usual trap of assuming how we played last season is how we will play this season.
We had some on here saying we wouldn’t sign Haaland because ‘we play with a false nine’
Pep always evolves. One of the many reasons why he’s the best

This season is already different and we're only 2 games in!!

I like the look of the kid in general, but there's something that bugs me. He looks to revert a lot to his one main trick (big step to the right), and seems to take a lot of big touches away from himself when in possession. It's all a bit clumsy looking.

Interested to see how this pans out.

Pep will soon knock that out of him. ;)

Well he’s not a finished article like everyone else but pep will iron out those minor wrinkles out . One specific trick I like the most is his back heel and 180 turn 1v1 . Foden does that spin often but without a ball on his feet .I don’t think we had any top dribbler so far better than sane .Doku makes sane look amature while dribbling .

I think Phils performance on Saturday has put an impetus on this as I can imagine Pep see's that we need a winger as Phil is a diamond in the middle

But he's also a diamond on the wing. He's an attacker with an attacking mindset. Traditionally players like him aren't in Pep's midfield. Pep even said after the game that he played good in the middle but we cannot forget how good he is on the wing.

Have to agree. His talent is wasted in wide areas. That display he put on Saturday night was phononemial.
He ran Bruno Guimares, Tonali and Joelinton ragged, It's far from a shabby midfield of Newcastle!

When Phil is on song like he was on Saturday you won't find a better player in Europe that can do that. He's sensational.

Its hard to say he's wasted as he's a brilliant winger too and to be honest, if Kev was fit I'd play Phil on the right. But in Kev's absence we need his skillset in the middle and it also sets him up for long term as Kev will be playing less and less games

I find it odd that some on here believe pep and taxi don't talk and agree on likely targets, do some really think taxi says here pep I've got you this nice lad from France fir him in somewhere.

Agreed. You don't keep a complicated fellow like Pep at your club, and happily, for as long as we have without bending over backwards to get him what he wants. That will include in the market more than anything.
